Secret Samurai Book One: Tangled Lives
Two women samurai . . .
Two different centuries . . .
A story of secrets, lies, love, war and ambition
that has consequences for Japan itself
Modern Englishwoman, Bebe Bell, is working in Japan. Time-travel mixes her mind with male samurai, Kai Matsuda. Soon, she is living a double life – her own in modern Japan – and the other living as Kai, fighting in the civil war of the 1860's which changed Japan forever.
Yoshi is a young woman forced to disguise herself as a samurai in order to deliver an important message to the emperor's court. Living as a man gives her influence and respect – things she has never experienced as a woman of her time. She becomes intoxicated with the power of it – which takes her life down undreamed of paths.
Circumstances bring her into the world of Kai – and the attraction between them is immediate – but they are fighting on opposing sides and Yoshi can never disclose her true sex to anyone, especially Kai: but he has Bebe in his mind and events take an unexpected turn.
In her own life, Bebe falls in love with Kenji Yoshida, a man who hides his true self under a cloak of conventionality and is afraid to find joy in his life. He has a secret that is destroying him and he cannot allow himself to love Bebe.
When these four people's lives intermingle, it changes their perceptions, ambitions and reality.
